Stormy weather

A short poem about relationships

Started bright with whispered words, in bed of gentle night
Snuggled under sheets of love, the calm before the fight
Breeze is gone from morning’s dawn, replaced by windy words
Blown strong across this field of sheets, as angry running herds

Clouds of thought blow dark and swift, roiled high above her cries
Tears fall down as sleeting rain, from skies of azure eyes
Scattered drops of actions past, dampen wrinkled sheets
Roots of words long forgot, break through the steaming streets

Of roads we built as two in life, a path to help us cope
Waters rise as hurt pools deep, plugging drains of hope
I close the shutters of my mind, to keep this storm outside
Battened down in cellared hope, ‘till passed, in dark reside

Shouted words are lost in storm, though swift as steaming trains
Assailed by hurt from broken heart, torrent breaks and maims
Trains of thought crash into seas, the bridge of trust now broke
Deeds long gone and thought forgot, on these I cough and choke
